It’s also called a whore bath. He might just be a whore.
A friend of mine is a non-native English speaker. He teaches at an elementary school and works with ‘English as a second language’ students. He casually mentioned that he always tells his students to take a ‘horse bath’ in the bathroom sink after recess if needed. He was traumatized when I told him that he’d misheard that phrase for his entire adult life.
That story’s as spicy as whore’s radish!
Well, he shouldn’t look a gift whore’s mouth.
I’m a whore expert and concur with this diagnosis.
Dad? When are you coming home?
Soon. Any day now.
Reminds me of a snippet of conversation I overheard at the grocery. Kid’s talking to their mom and yells “child prostitution, ever heard of it?” She was pissed.
“IT’S REAL WORK MOM”
Daaaaaaaayyyuuuummm, I wonder what was the chatter before the kid yelled that
I was split between the kid problem solving their personal money issues, or unintentionally acting obtuse with a word they’ve only heard in passing. Sadly, we’ll never know as my partner felt disinclined toward listening in any further.
We always called it military shower.
I thought that was just pits and bits?
